When a Bluetooth stack is installed on your PC, a standard modem driver is usually installed
automatically with the stack. Additionally, if you have Windows XP SP2 Bluetooth, the
Bluetooth modem driver is already installed. To check if you have a standard modem
installed, go to
Control Panel > Phone and Modem Options
.
If you have a standard modem driver you can use it instead of adding a Nokia Bluetooth
modem driver for your phone model. However, with the Nokia modem driver you can fully
utilize the data transfer capabilities of your phone.
Each Nokia phone model uses a different modem so you need to install a Nokia Bluetooth
modem driver for each phone model that you want to use as a modem via a Bluetooth
connection. You do not need to retrieve the drivers separately; the Bluetooth modem driver
.inf files are copied to your PC when you install Nokia PC Suite. In this way when you want to
install a modem driver, the file is shown in the installation window.
If for some reason you cannot find the modem file for your phone, you can download it from
your phone model’s Web pages in
